There were palms in profusion about the pulpit , in the chancel , standing along the choir r.iil. But this garniture of flowers , these garlands from Pucilic's sunny lands , had little symbolIsm - Ism to the relic hunters present in the church , who , after the wedding party had passed out , despoiled the church of its festal charac ter by carrying olT the llowcrs mm ribbons , leaving it ii.sorry sight.

But the crowd outside was oven ruder than the crowd within , Iho bridesmaids having lo run n gauntlet of course remarks and badinage in their etTorls lo gain admittance. Of course no one regrets thuso occurrences moro than the bride , for ano is i-ssontiully democratic , and when asked to have cards of admission to the church printed quietly lemurucd that all the pcoplo could como who bad a mind. The sequel shows that her simplicity and modesty were most shabbily treated by the mob , who iconi- Incly wore looklnc UDOII n swell wedding for the first tuno.
